Sara Jane O'Neill, Senior Research Associate, will be speaking on a panel about new solutions for sustainable stormwater management.

Extreme storms, hot dry summers, flooding and drought are part of the new reality of managing water in Canadian communities. Discover how three Canadian communities have generated revenue and reduced capital and maintenance costs through stormwater utilities, natural asset management and integrating green infrastructure with conventional stormwater systems.

This session will provide you with the opportunity to discuss and connect with stormwater management and financing experts across Canada, and gain valuable insight on novel and replicable initiatives. Tailored learning objectives, guided discussions and a facilitated case study activity will help you develop strategies and first steps to applying the right approach in your own community.
